Stumbled upon a dozen Ferrari's earlier
More than a dozen Ferrari's participated in some sort of cruise this evening. They all started from Algar Ferrari/Maserati in Rosemont PA. I'm not talking about old Testerosa's and Boxer's, these were some serious cars.
By my count I spotted
- 4 F430 Spider's
- 2 F430 Hardtops
- 2 360 Modena's
- 3 550 Maranello's
- 1 599 GTB Fiorano
- 1 512
- 1 Dino
The 599 showed up at the very end. He didn't even have time to pull into the small parking lot. The car was still there long enough to cause me to ruin my underwear.
I think for each car, there was also a cop. The police presence was quite significant. I guess if you have $2 million in cars sitting out, that's probably not a bad idea.

they're overpriced pos's that require so much maintenance, it's retarded. I used to work for a Ferrari Porsche Maserati and Aston Martin dealership and I hated that job. Driving them gets attention so you are nervous when people are looking at your car and not the road or their own lane and they are quick but I'll take the evo anyday over all of those
except maybe a 997 tt x-50 but I'll get that performance for less than $50k instead of blowing $130k

I think the only way I would ever be able to justify buying a Ferrari is if I could buy it straight cash, had the income to not even blink at maintenance charges, and could tell my secretary to take it in for servicing or some ****. The cumulative price of regular servicing on those machines is absolutely insane.

Performance isn't everything. I'm sure you could drop an LS1 in a chevette and blow an Evo's *** back. Only one problem, though...
You'd still be driving a chevette.
Ferraris are sex on wheels.... So you could beat a guy with a Ferrari in a race and maintenance is expensive-
You think a Ferrari owner cares?
PS: The Fiorano is the equivalent of being able to bone every hottie in the world, 'on wheels.'
